Here We Go!
Ok, so today i am starting a 21 one day fast with my father! He asked me last night to embark on this 21 day journey with him for a time of fasting and prayer! So I went home and prayed intensely about it last night and felt that I was suppose to do it! Now, for those who know me, I am not one for major fasting, b/c i enjoy food and my flesh CRAVES juicy steaks, southern style veggies, and most definitely TEXAS CHEESE FRIES done right! So for me to fast I have to hear directly from heaven! Especially since I fasted for 21 days at the start of January! By the way God is still completely wrecking me from that fast!
But in all seriousness my heart is breaking for my generation and for the lack of structure and motivation for this nation as a whole to hold fast to the things of God and not be swayed by EVERY “Presidential” nominees false since of reality and false promises! I am tired of everybody else in this country being able to attack anybody and everybody on ANY issue they deem worthy while Non-Religious, SPIRIT-FILLED believers like myself sit back and take the abuse and the beating from the secular-humanistic media and the rest of the world! I am FASTING b/c I need God to completely clean me out and fill me with everything that he oringinally intended for me to have and the dominion and authority he is calling me to walk in. I am FASTING b/c I am tired of people looking at me in the eye and saying, “ABORTION WILL NEVER END AND ITS A LOST CAUSE” when my bible says in James 5:16 “The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much”! Do you know why God is going to do it? Because I am asking him to do it, and I am seeking after him, and I AM knocking on the door of HIS heart begging him for a change concerning the slaughter of innocent blood! I am also fasting for a deeper relationship with my Saviour who died for me! And last but certainley not least I am fasting for a greater annoiting than I have ever known that completely overtakes my life! A mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit in these times where we go back to the days of old when we didn’t just TALK about people getting healed, saved , or delivered it ACTUALLY HAPPENED! I am fasting to see BLINDED EYES OPEN, THE DEAD LIVING AGAIN, THE SICK BEING HEALED, ARMS, TOES, AND FEET GROWING BACK WHERE THERE USED TO BE NOTHING! I am asking God to let me be apart of an end time revival that is a NEW sound, NEW word, and a NEW delivery but has the same passion, tenacity, and vigor of the old evangelist like Smith Wigglesworth and A.A. Allen. I want to have Gods heart like these two men had and walk in an annoiting like they did!
This is my cry today: God I am ready, I know that I have to decrease so that YOU can increase! Forgive me for my trespasses and missing the mark! I ask you to cleanse my heart and remove any biterness or anger that i have harbored in the past! I know that you are calling me to a life of reckless abandon in going after you and fullfilling the calling and destiny that you have set in place for my life! I also know that to walk in the same power and demonstration of the Holy Ghost that so many have walked before me WILL COST ME EVERYTHING! Today God, once again I place my life in your hands and say TAKE ALL OF ME, again TAKE ALL OF ME! I surrender my life to you in every way, shape, and form and hold nothing back! Let my heart break for what yours breaks for! Let my hands bleed for what you bleed for! Let my soul burn for what your soul burns for! If what you are asking of me cost me everything, even my life lord I gladly give it to you! I am desperate on this Wednesday morning for you to use me in a mighty and powerful way! God today I say I WILL because I now know that You say, “I WILL WHEN YOU WILL”!
today, put down your PRIDE, your EMOTIONS, your RHETORIC, your MASK and all the other things that you always carry and say, “TODAY IS MY DAY, I SURRENDER, I GIVE UP”!
